Old and small bathroom and shower, almost impossible to share. Room itself is ok but lots of issues like no privacy blinds or curtains, only the blackout thick one. Not enough lights. TV and internet were fine. Location is the only good thing. It is a 1 star motel. No ice machine, no pool, they have a fence thwt blocks easy way to the nearest beach.

Needs renovation badly

This place needs a full renovation, the mattress is uneven and hangs off the side, the fridge still had someone’s food in it, the light was flickering, anything that’s broken just gets taped up here. The front desk guy showed up at my room saying he needs to go inside check my ac even though I didn’t call him and the ac is working fine. I would say the only one good thing is the proximity to the beach. I would come back if this place got fixed up and renovated and not such a dump.
